Revealed – Three Crucial Things Inter Milan Failed To Do To Prevent Simone Inzaghi Departure | OneFootball

Inter Milan and Simone Inzaghi parted ways in strange circumstances following a highly successful four-year spell at the helm.

Per La Repubblica via FCInterNews, Beppe Marotta is among the main culprits for the 49-year-old’s sudden exit.

Nothing suggested Simone Inzaghi could leave San Siro midway through the 2024/25 season.

However, only days after Inter’s collapse in the Champions League final, he announced his transfer to Al-Hilal.

Inzaghi’s decision came out of the blue but wasn’t unfounded.

Beppe Marotta may have let overconfidence cloud his judgment.

Indeed, he took Inzaghi’s contract renewal for granted and refused to offer him fresh terms in March.

Instead, he believed it was a ‘mere formality’ and decided to postpone extension talks until the end of the season.

Furthermore, the club didn’t back the former manager amid Inzaghi’s raging conflict with Serie A referees.

Finally, they didn’t listen to Inzaghi’s request to sign a new striker in January.

All that led Inzaghi to choose Al-Hilal’s monstrous contract proposal over Inter.

Meanwhile, Cristian Chivu faces turmoil at the start of his managerial career at San Siro.
